# Deployment patterns

The deployment options supported for network information management systems are dependent on the [implementation options](/en/architectures/network-management/implementation-options/implementation-options.md) presented in this reference architecture.

| **Implementation option** | **ArcGIS Online (SaaS)** | **ArcGIS Enterprise on Windows and Linux (software)** | **ArcGIS Enterprise on Kubernetes (software)** |
| :------------------------------------- | :------: | :---------------: | :------------: |
| Option 1: User provided non-topological data model | ✓| ✓ | ✓ |
| Option 2: User provided topological model network data model | | ✓ | ✓ |
| Option 3: Industry standard data model | | ✓ | ✓ |
